Bulbus.
First you doodle an array of shaky lines on the city bus ride, then you smear a concoction of watercolors in a seemingly haphazard but thoroughly thought through way and finish by emphasizing those watercolor blobs by lining them with a 0.5 marker. The final result?
This piece du masterness. Eh, its nothing special.
A boy.
"There was a boy a ran away, from what he didn't know. Whom, he wouldn't say, He just had to go."
My sketches of people are still rather...sketchy. Its surprising that I drew a guy, as I generally lean towards doodling girls (mostly because I think my guys are never as attractive as the real thing) but I really do wish I could make things look more realistic without having to use a life models as a guide. I think the secret to conquering lies within perfecting 2 crucial things: foreshortening + faces.
Time to get practicing I guess.
Red mits.
Inspired by a mix of Olympic spirit, patriotism and late winter snow storms. I'm just now slowly figuring out how different media reacts to the paper in my little (fake) moleskin. Being a pencil crayon/Prismacolor expert, I can't say Im overly enthusiastic as to how the crayons cover, but alas...guess I'll have to make it work.

tea princess.
Bald, boney, naked alien beings love tea just as much as anybody. I fixed the picture in real life and gave her a spoon after i realized that she might want some sugar with her tea.
Gotta say though, purchasing a (non-leather) moleskin was just possibly one of the best ideas Ive had in weeks. What a compact, classy little book it is. I need to stock up on 0.2 pens though. Anyone wanna contribute to the fund?
